Welcome to Follow The Leader FTL

Don't Flinch. You should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus. If you are dead to sin the devil cannot feed on you. He is like a roaring lion, sneaking around to find someone to attack, someone to devour. If we are submitted to God fully we are less likely to flinch and go back into sin. The enemy knows if he can get us just to hesitate, or just get a foothold on us. He can then get his guilty claws into your heart and mind

LORD, I have my head in the clouds. Oh to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen. I want to love you and know you more. All I know in this life is sin and death. But you Jesus are truly spirit and life, something my heart longs for. For eternal life is to know you, the only true God, and to know Jesus Christ. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him mig

The Nephilim spirit. The Nephilim were mysterious beings or people in the Hebrew Bible who were large and strong. The word Nephilim is loosely translated as giants in some translations of the Hebrew Bible, but left untranslated in others. Jewish explanations interpret them as hybrid sons of fallen angels. I don't want to debate theology about these people but I do want to show the power of the Gospel through the Spirit of Christ. In those days, and for some time after, giant

Jesus called a little child to him and put the child among them. Then he said, “I tell you the truth, unless you turn from your sins and become like little children, you will never get into the Kingdom of Heaven. LORD Jesus, make me trainable like a young children. Able to be a sponge of your presence and grow in wisdom and stature with God and man. Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me. My hea

Lick your wounds. Animals know that when they get hurt, their wound needs to be soothed because it is painful. Humans, dogs, as well as other species, will desire to quickly attend to their wounds. It is an instinct. When your dog licks a wound, there are healing capacities in their saliva and it can also help cleanse the area. Dogs like to lick sores to promote healing. I think of the rich man and Lazarus story that Jesus told. How the rich man so blessed and lived in luxury

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight! What sorrow for those who are heroes at drinking wine and boast about all the alcohol they can hold. Those who acquit the guilty for a bribe, and deprive the innocent of his right! Therefore, just as fire licks up stubble and dry grass shrivels in the flame, so their roots will rot and their flowers withe

Lay Me Down. Yes, I do, I believe. That one day I will be where you are. Right there, right next to you seated in heavenly places. And it's hard, the days just seem so dark. The moon, and the stars are nothing without you. Your touch, your skin, where do I begin? I can't imagine what your disciples felt when they say you leave in the clouds to receive your glory. I am sure no words can explain the way they were missing you. I can't deny this emptiness, this hole that I'm feel

New postings relating wisdom of the world with Scripture. See how the Spirit of God is rich in every tribe and culture, and how Jesus is the only answer. Does not wisdom call out? Does not understanding raise her voice? At the highest point along the way, where the paths meet, she takes her stand; beside the gate leading into the city, at the entrance, she cries aloud: “To you, O people, I call out; I raise my voice to all mankind. South African Proverb "You cannot beat a dru

Move Forward. Help us LORD to be done with the retreat and defeat of our sins. The returning to the vomit and vices we so secretly love. Give us strength today to move forward in faith even though we don't see our healing yet. Even though we don't see our provision yet or our promotion yet. If we come after you we must believe that you exist Jesus in this fallen world. And that you reward those who earnestly seek you and know you. Let us forget what is behind and strain towar

(Heavenly Adventures Series) A Dream World. Isa.11:6 In that day the wolf and the lamb will live together; the leopard will lie down with the baby goat. The calf and the yearling will be safe with the lion, and a little child will lead them all. Hungry lions hunger in this world and they are never satisfied. Young lions suffer and die for lack of food. The fierce lion will starve for lack of prey, and the cubs of the lioness will be scattered. And the lamb it lives in fear. W
